Job description

Your new company
You will be joining a fast-growing UK-based group in their Head Office, based close to the centre of Farnborough, Hampshire. The business has been in existence for over 20 years and in the last 4 years has doubled through acquisition.

Your new role
Reporting to the Head of Finance, you will be taking on a broad role that combines analysis and business partnering. This is a key role where you will take charge of analysing both cost and revenue to maximise profitability for the group. You'll be working closely on a day-to-day basis with the commercial and finance teams, analysing customer billing and supplier invoicing to ensure delivery is inline with contracts and to ensure the correct controls are in place to prevent/mitigate any invoicing issues. You'll also work with the procurement teams on cost-saving drives. As you would expect for a role of this nature, there is a high level of data analysis, so you'll be using your intermediate/advanced excel skills every day and present reports/KPIs back to the senior management team.

What you'll need to succeed
You should be a proven operator within financial analysis and have experience of high data volumes in both invoicing and billing. You should also be a proven relationship builder and business partner. The client's preference is for an accounting qualification (ACA/ACCA/CIMA/equiv).

What you'll get in return
A competitive salary is on offer, a host of benefits including hybrid working, free parking and a bonus paying up to 40% of your basic salary.
